$90 seems like a decent price. It was listed at $99.99 on K&L but is now apparently sold out. It is a NAS vatting of a number of different ages of Talisker malt whisky, reportedly a number of which are 20+. Just how much is that old and how much is 10yo or so whisky (or less?) is of course a mystery. Opinions vary but I found some pretty decent reviews.

I haven't really hit on a Scotch blog that I depend on yet but Serge seemed to like it for what ever that's worth! Scroll down to September 22nd, 2005.

Not sure of exact year. Just did a little research and it could be as late as 2005. LVMH acquired Glenmorangie in 2004 but if I'm reading right it didn't change bottles/labels until 2008, hope someone can correct me if I'm wrong. The telling thing on this bottle is that it lists Brown-Forman as its importer, while LVMH discontinued using BF in 2005.
